for example, on a linux distro, we could modify the desktop environment and make it waaaaay lighter by getting rid of jpg or png icons and just using pure svg on it.

Isn’t that how it already works? GNOME system icons are all SVG - that’s what allows them to change colors when you change themes or switch between light and dark mode.

Some great new features! Looking forward to trying this out

Excellent, glad it’s been working out for you! Thanks for the update.

Running this command was the only thing required for me to get access to the com ports. After that, everything worked perfectly.

sudo usermod -a -G dialout $USER

(note that $USER is part of the command - do not replace that with your actual username)

This is excellent.

Why isn’t KDE Neon ever recommended? It seems like it would be a solid option.

Where did you buy it? Looking for something similar for myself.

Quite interesting. Thank you for the information!

Sure, people should not use their work computer for personal use.

However, I would say the majority of people absolutely do use it for occasional personal use. Checking your personal email at work? Googling driving directions to the dentist? Using the pdf editor to fill out a form? Searching for a flight during your lunch break? I would say everyone I see at work does this, and I would bet that when they take their laptop home they would not hesitate to boot it up for personal use. And the people working remotely I would wager use it even more.

I’m not saying it’s right, but I do think using a completely separate SSD and OS is way more responsible from a security perspective.

From a technical perspective I’m curious - how would they know a drive has been added without physically inspecting the laptop?

Thanks for the information. And good point - I will check to see if there’s any logs in the BIOS. Is there any way to know if boot logs are being sent? Is that a BIOS setting, or something that would be configured in Windows?

• Samba (for file sharing)
• OpenSSH Server
• Synching (to sync files between devices)
• Vorta (for automatic backups)
• ethtool (for wake on LAN)
• KDE Connect

Check out your local library as well. Mine lets you print 2 pages for free each time you go in, and it’s super cheap to print more.

The feature I absolutely love on Opera mobile is it will dynamicly wrap text and adjust the page layout to a single column when you zoom in/out. So for pages with small text, you can zoom in to see enlarged text and just scroll down to read - where on all other browsers you have to scroll horizontally back and forth to read the enlarged text.

Opera has been doing this brilliantly for at least 10 years, and I have yet to see this on any other mobile browsers I’ve tried.

I hadn’t come across this when I was trying to get it to work with Wine. This looks promising - I’ll give it a try next time!

That’s an interesting idea. I will give that a shot next time!

I have to keep a Windows install around for the sole purpose of pushing firmware updates to my Headrush pedal board. The installer will run on Linux with Wine, but it cannot detect the pedalboard through the USB connection.
